Laptop Distribution - Fall 2010
Important! - A photo ID is required to pick up your laptop. Your Rensselaer ID is preferred, but you may also show your driver's license, passport, etc. Having your Rensselaer Identification Number (RIN) will also make this procedure easier.
You will also need your RCS userID and password in order to configure your laptop for network connectivity.
__________________________________________________________
CII 3051, located in the CII annex, will serve as the starting point for this year's laptop distribution.
FRESHMEN: Please plan to pick up your laptop on your assigned day unless you have a schedule conflict. In case of such a conflict, you may attend either distribution day.
| Date and time | Students | |
|---|---|---|
| Friday, August 27, 9am-11am | All students -- Freshmen, upperclassmen, and transfer students | |
| Sunday, August 29, 9am-1pm | All students -- Freshmen, upperclassmen, and transfer students |
If you are unable to pick up your laptop at one of the times listed above, the Mobile Computing Program will also hold two small-scale distribution sessions in the VCC lobby during the first week of classes, as follows:
| Tuesday, August 31, 2pm-4pm |
| Wednesday, September 1, 11am-1pm |
Trade-ups
If you're currently using a T61 or T61p laptop, you have the opportunity to trade in your current model for a credit on your student account toward the purchase of the Fall 2010 Mobile Computing Package, which includes the Lenovo ThinkPad T410. Find out how!
